which_o i_o add_v this_o more_o general_a consideration_n 3_o that_o though_o the_o new_a testament_n have_v mention_v nothing_o of_o this_o matter_n yet_o its_o silence_n in_o such_o case_n be_v not_o argumentative_a our_o saviour_n speak_v as_o he_o have_v occasion_n and_o the_o thousand_o part_n of_o what_o he_o do_v and_o say_v be_v not_o record_v as_o one_o of_o his_o historian_n intimate_v he_o say_v nothing_o of_o those_o large_a unknown_a tract_n of_o america_n nor_o give_v he_o any_o intimation_n of_o as_o much_o as_o the_o existence_n of_o that_o numerous_a people_n much_o less_o do_v he_o leave_v instruction_n about_o their_o conversion_n he_o give_v no_o account_n of_o the_o affair_n and_o state_n of_o the_o other_o world_n but_o only_o that_o general_a one_o of_o the_o happiness_n of_o some_o and_o the_o misery_n of_o other_o he_o make_v no_o discovery_n of_o the_o magnalia_fw-la of_o art_n or_o nature_n no_o not_o of_o those_o whereby_o the_o propagation_n of_o the_o gospel_n may_v have_v be_v much_o advance_v viz._n the_o mystery_n of_o print_v and_o the_o magnet_n and_o yet_o no_o one_o use_v his_o silence_n in_o these_o instance_n as_o a_o argument_n against_o the_o be_v of_o thing_n which_o be_v evident_a object_n of_o sense_n i_o confess_v the_o omission_n of_o some_o of_o these_o particular_n be_v pretty_a strange_a and_o unaccountable_a and_o conclude_v our_o ignorance_n of_o the_o reason_n and_o menage_n of_o providence_n but_o i_o suppose_v nothing_o else_o i_o think_v i_o need_v here_o to_o have_v say_v no_o more_o but_o i_o consider_v in_o consequence_n of_o this_o objection_n it_o be_v pretend_v that_o as_o christ_n jesus_n drive_v the_o devil_n from_o his_o temple_n and_o his_o altar_n as_o be_v clear_a in_o the_o cessation_n of_o oracle_n which_o dwindle_v away_o and_o at_o last_o grow_v silent_a short_o upon_o his_o appearance_n so_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o banish_v he_o from_o his_o lesser_a hold_n in_o sorcerer_n and_o witch_n which_o argument_n be_v peccant_a both_o in_o what_o it_o affirm_v and_o in_o what_o it_o will_v infer_v for_o 1_o the_o come_n of_o the_o h._n jesus_n do_v not_o expel_v the_o devil_n from_o all_o the_o great_a place_n of_o his_o residence_n and_o worship_n for_o a_o considerable_a part_n of_o barbarous_a mankind_n do_v he_o public_a solemn_a homage_n to_o this_o day_n so_o that_o the_o very_a foundation_n of_o the_o pretence_n fail_v and_o the_o consequence_n without_o any_o more_o ado_n come_v to_o nothing_o and_o yet_o beside_o 2_o if_o there_o be_v any_o credit_n to_o be_v give_v to_o ecclesiastic_a history_n there_o be_v person_n possess_v with_o devil_n some_o age_n after_o christ_n who_o the_o disciple_n cast_v out_o by_o prayer_n and_o the_o invocation_n of_o his_o name_n so_o that_o satan_n be_v not_o drive_v from_o his_o lesser_a habitation_n assoon_o as_o he_o be_v force_v from_o his_o more_o famous_a abode_n and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n 3_o why_o though_o divine_a providence_n will_v not_o allow_v he_o public_o to_o abuse_v the_o nation_n who_o he_o have_v design_v in_o a_o short_a time_n after_o for_o subject_n of_o his_o son_n kingdom_n and_o to_o stand_v up_o in_o the_o face_n of_o religion_n in_o a_o open_a affront_n to_o the_o divinity_n that_o plant_v it_o to_o the_o great_a hindrance_n of_o the_o progress_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o discouragement_n of_o christian_a hope_n i_o say_v though_o providence_n will_v not_o allow_v this_o height_n of_o insolent_a opposition_n yet_o i_o see_v not_o why_o we_o may_v not_o grant_v that_o god_n however_o permit_v the_o devil_n to_o sneak_v into_o some_o private_a skulk_a hole_n and_o to_o trade_n with_o the_o particular_a more_o devote_v vassal_n of_o his_o wicked_a empire_n as_o we_o know_v that_o when_o our_o saviour_n have_v chase_v he_o from_o the_o man_n that_o be_v possess_v he_o permit_v his_o retreat_n into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n and_o i_o may_v add_v 4_o that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o bad_a way_n of_o argue_v to_o set_v up_o phancy_v congruity_n against_o plain_a experience_n as_o be_v evident_o do_v by_o those_o arguer_n who_o because_o they_o think_v that_o christ_n chase_v the_o devil_n from_o all_o his_o high_a place_n of_o worship_n when_o he_o come_v that_o it_o be_v therefore_o fit_a he_o shall_v have_v force_v he_o from_o all_o his_o other_o less_o notorious_a haunt_v and_o upon_o the_o imagination_n of_o a_o decency_n which_o they_o frame_v conclude_v a_o fact_n contrary_a to_o the_o great_a evidence_n of_o which_o the_o thing_n be_v capable_a and_o once_o more_o 5_o the_o consequence_n of_o this_o imagine_a decorum_n if_o it_o be_v pursue_v will_v be_v this_o that_o satan_n shall_v now_o be_v deprive_v of_o all_o the_o way_n and_o trick_n of_o cozenage_n whereby_o he_o abuse_v we_o and_o mankind_n since_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n shall_v have_v be_v secure_a from_o all_o his_o temptation_n for_o there_o be_v a_o great_a congruity_n in_o believe_v that_o when_o he_o be_v sorce_v from_o his_o haunt_n in_o temple_n and_o public_a place_n he_o shall_v be_v put_v also_o from_o those_o near_o one_o about_o we_o and_o within_o we_o in_o his_o daily_a temptation_n of_o universal_a mankind_n than_o that_o upon_o relinquish_a those_o he_o shall_v be_v make_v to_o leave_v all_o profess_a communication_n and_o correspondence_n with_o those_o profligate_v person_n who_o vileness_n have_v fit_v they_o for_o such_o company_n so_o that_o these_o reasoner_n be_v very_o fair_a for_o the_o denial_n of_o all_o internal_a diabolical_a temptation_n and_o because_o i_o dare_v not_o trust_v they_o i_o will_v crave_v your_o leave_n here_o to_o add_v some_o thing_n concern_v those_o in_o order_n to_o which_o that_o i_o may_v obtain_v the_o favour_n of_o those_o wary_a person_n who_o be_v so_o coy_a and_o shy_a of_o their_o assent_n i_o grant_v that_o man_n frequent_o out_o of_o a_o desire_n to_o excuse_v themselves_o lay_v their_o own_o guilt_n upon_o the_o devil_n and_o charge_v he_o with_o thing_n of_o which_o in_o earnest_n he_o be_v not_o guilty_a for_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o every_o wicked_a man_n have_v devil_n enough_o in_o his_o own_o nature_n to_o prompt_v he_o to_o evil_a and_o need_v not_o another_o tempter_n to_o incite_v he_o but_o yet_o that_o satan_n endeavour_n to_o further_a our_o wickedness_n and_o our_o ruin_n by_o his_o enticement_n and_o go_v up_o and_o down_o seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v be_v too_o evident_a in_o the_o holy_a oracle_n to_o need_v my_o endeavour_n particular_o to_o make_v it_o good_a only_o those_o diffident_a man_n can_v perhaps_o apprehend_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o operation_n and_o from_o thence_o be_v tempt_v to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v real_o no_o such_o thing_n therefore_o i_o judge_v it_o requisite_a to_o explain_v this_o and_o it_o be_v not_o unsuitable_a to_o my_o general_a subject_n in_o order_n to_o it_o i_o consider_v that_o sense_n be_v primary_o cause_v by_o motion_n in_o the_o organ_n which_o by_o continuity_n be_v convey_v to_o the_o brain_n where_o sensation_n be_v immediate_o perform_v and_o it_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o notice_n excite_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o the_o impulse_n of_o a_o external_a object_n thus_o it_o be_v in_o simple_a outward_a sense_n but_o imagination_n though_o cause_v immediate_o by_o material_a motion_n also_o yet_o it_o differ_v from_o the_o external_a sense_n in_o this_o that_o it_o be_v not_o from_o a_o impress_n direct_o from_o without_o but_o the_o prime_n and_o original_a motion_n be_v from_o within_o our_o self_n thus_o the_o soul_n itself_o sometime_o strike_v upon_o those_o string_n who_o motion_n beget_v such_o and_o such_o phantasm_n otherwhile_o the_o loose_a spirit_n wander_v up_o and_o down_o in_o the_o brain_n casual_o hit_v upon_o such_o filment_n and_o string_n who_o motion_n excite_v a_o conception_n
